8.2.3.3

Super IO Module

The Super IO consists of two serial devices COM1 and COM2 connected via the LPC bus
interface. The Super IO has the following features:

Serial IRQ interface compatible with serialized IRQ support for LPC systems

Two fully functional Serial ports COM1and COM2 compatible to 16550C

Configurable I/O addresses and interrupts

Configurable Pre-divider to support 48 MHz CLK_UART clock input

8.2.3.4

GPP Reset Controller

8.2.3.4.1 GPP XDP Debugger Reset

For debugging the XDP CPU debugger must be able to reset the board.

When PWR_GOOD is high and the reset signal GPP_XDP_DBR_ is asserted the reset signal
GPP_SYS_RST_ is driven low.

8.2.3.4.2 GPP Platform Reset

The GPP Platform Reset is asserted in the following cases:

Face Plate Push Button reset or ARMT Push Button reset.

SPP holds the GPP in reset

The GPP should stay in reset until reset source is released. A GPP reset is triggered by a falling
edge of GPP_SYS_RST_. GPP starts reboot even GPP_SYS_RST_ is still asserted. Therefore a
state machine is needed to keep the system in reset until the reset source is released.

The PCH signal GPP_SYS_RST_ is used to trigger a Cold Reset. The PCH has a 16 ms debounce
filter for the GPP_SYS_RST_ signal. Therefore the low and high states need to be stable for at
least 16 ms.

GPP_SYS_RST_ is edge sensitive. A high to low transition (after debounce time) triggers a cold
reset. The PCH asserts for 5 to 6 ms the platform reset signal GPP_PLTRST_. The reset may be
delayed depending on some system states.
